Is this RZM GES GESCH HJ Arbeiterjugend membership badge a dud ??

I have seen these badges with "REDO" at the top of the pin and "Ges Gesch" at the bottom on the back. What does REDO mean? I have seen this on a few of these and I am confused. Are they real?

Yes, i pictured these on this thread. Werner Redo never made official small enamel badges this early, we only find his marks on badges in the official post April 1935 manner, with the M1/ prefix, and not just his name. There are many other reasons why the badges marked REDO GES.GESCH are not real. The same marking are found on many other fake small pins, i guess the forger did a run of small organizational badges at one time, my guess would be the early-mid 1970s.
